Karina Smirnoff: “Ralph Macchio Is My Very Own Benjamin Button!” (Photos)

SPOTTED: Karina Smirnoff of Dancing with the Stars at the Reality Rocks Expo Sunday April 10 in Los Angeles, CA.

Karina told CelebMagnet that her dancing partner, Ralph Macchio, looks so young in person, she calls him her Benjamin Button! In fact, Karina says Ralph gets younger by the day and she expects to be rocking him in her arms like a baby by the time the season ends!

Karina was also wearing a T-shirt she made in Macchio’s honor. The white top reads ‘Dance On – Dance Off’ in reference to the famous quote from the 1984 Karate Kid film, ‘Wax On – Wax Off’.

DWTS’ Maksim Chmerkovskiy Wants You To Walk Your Dog! (Photos)

SuperModel Cindy Crawford and a number of her celebrity friends including Dancing with the Stars‘ SuperHottie Maksim Chmerkovskiy attended the Propel Zero to 1000 Celebrity Dog-Walking Event in Malibu, CA Saturday.

As the new face of Propel Zero, Cindy is helping inspire men and women go from Zero to 1000 in 2011 – that’s 1000 minutes of moving this year – by committing to moving just 20 more minutes a week.

The Malibu event aimed to increase awareness for the benefits of an active lifestyle and raise money for Much Love, a non-profit organization dedicated to the well-being of animals.

Maksim joked that his own pet bulldog was named “Sleep” because those types of dogs are supposed to be calm, but, apparently his didn’t get the memo…


Here are some photos of Maks and Cindy from the event:

WOWZERS! 

It got real hot and steamy in Los Angeles Wednesday, and I am not just talking about the weather. 

Tyra Banks, the gorgeous and fierce creator and host of America’s Next Top Model, co-creator of True Beauty, and host of her own talk show, The Tyra Banks Show, came to The Grove for an interview with Mario Lopez of Extra, but ended up flirting so much with the pretty and dimpled host, you could literally see the sweat dripping from Mario’s face.

You don’t believe me? See the story unravel before your own eyes through the pictures below! And then, watch for the full interview on Extra airing soon.

Mario asked Tyra to describe her perfect man…and she started describing Mario to a tee, including his hair, muscles, and dimples…

Things were heating up so fast, you can see the visible sweat on Mario’s face….
AND…things ended the only way they could in front of a live audience and tons of cameras…..

…they merely hugged it out….

…And then Mario had to cover up the sweat 😉

AND, Tyra couldn’t help herself again and started playing with Mario’s dimples..who can blame her?
